We recently implemented DXF object import in our medical visualization to simplify importing objects created using CAD applications, including Vectorworks. I have found that the objects exported in Vectorworks do not have any color attributes. As a test, if I export something as DXF and re-import into Vectorworks, the colors have disappeared. I tried changing the DXF version in the export dialog, however that does not seem to work. There does not seem to be any color related settings to tweak either. Can someone tell me if this is supposed to work, and if so, is there an obvious setting that I amy be missing?
